And Trump seems to be losing more support, than gaining it, to me.

Vaccine support is hurting him. Conservatives are coming to the conclusion that while they love Trump, the GOP candidate needs to be somebody dedicated to completely smashing government overreach, before it is too late.

Trump is still the leading candidate - but we'll see if he polls the same a year from now.

No... or maybe as a tactical feint to gain support, and then throw his endorsement to another contender.

125 million people could vote for Trump. He’d still lose the election.

I read the excerpt for Biden’s age (now or in 2024 - NOT given). It did say he probably wouldn’t run in the second paragraph and mentioned incapacitating mental deficits, but no age comparison.

To assume the Trump of 2018 is the Trump of 2024 is a serious error. Biden cannot and will not run. Biden was forced by the party to develop an end to the 20+ candidate primary debacle. If there is no Democrat candidate with tons of charisma, they have a problem

The DemonRats have a huge problem on who they will run in 2024.

The other thing that the DemonRats must run against is the cheating that happened and allowed by the Republicans.

It was so obvious and it is all coming out that President Trump was cheated out of a second presidential tern=m.

The DemonRats will not run this guy Biden since he has got too many issues due to his Alheimer's/Dementia problems and his brain aneurysms that have left this guy Biden with being feeble and so many other issues.

There was no mention of Biden’s age now or in 2024...only mental deficits... I scanned the excerpt looking specifically for Biden’s age....

I hope your crystal ball is out of whack otherwise America is going down for the count. It’s not about a fresh face. What a joke.
If not Trump there is no one else who can take the heat. The Left has gotten worse & worse over the past decade. Once President Trump has cleaned the stables there are people in the wings with the guts & vision to move the ball forward.
At this point those same folks would not be able to run the gauntlet.

RE: Convention of States

I wounder if the Convention of States would do any good.

We have a great Constitution. The problem is it’s being compromised at so many levels.

I see where the fascist “democrats’” Iranian voter base is vowing “revenge” if the ‘RATs don’t put President Trump on “trial” for killing their head military chimpanzee. It’s a weird world these days. I’m pretty sure it way too late to make America great again. It’s officially a turd world crap hole now.

Within months, the entire vaccine debacle will be blamed on Trump.

YES! Unless he begins to show signs of mental deterioration that BIDEN was showing over ten years ago!

This whole article is nothing but an attempt to pooh-pooh his nomination support from his base and others so widely dissatisfied with Biden and the Democrats. Just more trash journalism.

Exactly, cue Liz Cheney to say how Trump is dangerous for America.

I agree with you completely. Trump has absolutely legitimate reasons to be enraged about the stolen election. But that’s all he’s about now. He will be too old in 2024 and Biden will not be his opponent. Americans will not want another old man in the White House.

Trump should step back and he should do it soon. He’s blocking the way for other Republicans such as DeSantis who would be strong candidates and without Trump’s baggage.

But Trump won’t do it. His enormous ego won’t let him. The Democrats are in trouble but so are we. And, by the way, Peter Navarro’s book is entitled “In Trump Time.” It’s about how Trump pushed for a quick vaccine. Probably the same way he fast-tracked the construction of his buildings or the skating rink in New York City. This may turn out to have been a catastrophic error in judgment.

It doesn’t matter because even if Trump gets elected in 2024, he would never do what needs to be done to save the nation from complete catastrophe e.g. declare martial law, suspend the Constitution, arrest thousands and deport millions, he’s just too nice of a guy. This country simply won’t be ‘fixed’ through the normal channels of voting, it’s too far gone.

“Rather than running again I wish he’d offer to chair a Convention of States.”

I’d support updating the Constitution, but unless the Democrats are removed as political players, they’ll just ignore the rewrite, as they ignore the Constitution in its current form.

Instead, we need to do everything possible to drive the Democrats to fringes of politics and to charge and convict those who have clearly broken the law - as in framing Trump/Russia. Trump at least will try...no other Republican would come close to doing it.

“...especially when there are younger, capable Republicans available.”

I’d like a list...besides De Santis.

We talk about the Socialist Democrats having no one on their bench, but other than De Santis, who else do we have that isn’t a RINO and can take the gut-busting slander and denigration the Enemy Media will dish out?

The best senario from my perspective is for DJT to have Desantis run as his VP we could ad anoter eight years after Trump finishes his term. I know some Freeper Rinos won’t like it.
